The lower net profit was attributed to the permanent shutdown of the polystyrene unit, and the total depreciation of its value during the current period, which impacted Petrochem’s net income by SAR 254 million. Moreover, product prices decreased during the current period compared with same period from last year. Lower other income also weighed on the company’s annual profit.
